I have an M5 scope which has the focus mechanism, both screw and rack, stripped. Does anyone have, or know of alternatives to, these parts?

Any help is appreciated.


Leica, who now owns Wild, still had original replacement racks and pinions available for the M5 a few years back. Try contacting them through their website. http://www.leica.com

IIRC, the rack for the old yellow/tan colored M5 was made too tall, and had to be hand fitted for a backlash free fit.
